I love to Crochet

I started crocheting some time ago, and I love it! I am always thinking of my next project.  What is it going to be? How will it turn out? What colors will I use? Who will I give it to? Strangely, it often consumes my thoughts!  There have been many times when my Husband has to ask me to PUT IT DOWN so that I can concentrate on more important things.  I just get in the zone and sometimes it's hard to come out!

Something happened today that I never expected.  I took a little Hello Kitty hat, that I had just finished, with me to my weekly coffee break. We all sit around, drink coffee, eat goodies and a few of us crochet and knit.  It's been a wonderful time for me to socialize with my mommy friends and to indulge in a little adult conversation. (That is, as much as we can with 10 or more kids running around asking for goodies and drinks!) Anyway, I took this hat to show my friends my most recent project - my favorite one yet, and two of my friends asked me to make one for their daughters!  They even offered to pay me.  I then went home and  posted my most recent homemade creations to my facebook, and I had another friend ask me to make one for her daughter as well!  That's three orders in one day. Maybe I should get to crocheting!  I even promised my 3 little girls that they would get one as well!  This should keep me busy for awhile...
